About this event
One of the nations most distinguished ensembles, the National Symphony Orchestra (NSO) returns to IU Auditorium for the first time in nearly seven decades. The internationally celebrated orchestra performs more than 150 concerts annually and is heard by audiences across the country through high-profile broadcasts and national events. The performance will be conducted by Gianandrea Noseda, the NSOs music director and one of the worlds most sought-after conductors. Noseda is currently in his ninth season with the orchestra. The evening also will feature solo violinist Ray Chen, a global phenomenon redefining classical performance for the 21st century. The Bloomington program will open with Rossinis sparkling William Tell Overture, followed by Samuel Barbers lyrical and technically dazzling Violin Concerto featuring Chen. The evening concludes with Beethovens Symphony No. 6, the beloved Pastoral, a vivid and evocative journey through nature.
